About this award
The Regents of the University of Michigan received a $42,465 grant award from a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center to support research tracking two future black hole outbursts using the Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) and Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) missions. The award, issued January 9, 2024, with completion targeted for January 8, 2027, represents a non-set-aside research grant managed through the university's Office of Research and Sponsored Projects Division at its Ann Arbor, Michigan campus. This grant supports high-energy astrophysics research aimed at monitoring and analyzing black hole outburst phenomena through coordinated observations using two complementary space-based X-ray observation platforms.
The University of Michigan's involvement in this astrophysical research aligns with its extensive portfolio of federally-funded scientific investigations across multiple domains. As a major research institution with significant experience managing complex research grants from agencies including the National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health, the university leverages its advanced research infrastructure and interdisciplinary expertise to conduct cutting-edge observational astronomy studies. This award contributes to the broader national effort to advance understanding of black hole behavior and high-energy phenomena in the universe through coordinated use of existing orbital observatories.
